FOR LOUISE BOGAN

“Poems came rarely and at a cost.”
                                        Wendy Hirsch writing of Louse Bogan

Like children.
Like love,
          the kind that turns night magic.
Like truth
          that settles to the center and stays
                    forever.

—Dan Edwards
